I awoke in the early hours of this morning to the sound of a howling banshee. Made a mental not of the time to check the CCTV and this is what I saw and heard. You can select 1080p HD and go full screen if you click through to Youtube.

Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".

That was quite a racket!

Ignorance breeds Fear. Fear breeds Hatred. Hatred breeds Ignorance. Break the chain.
When we visit relatives in Brincliffe we see them all the time-apparently someone up the road feeds them.
They are quite brazen.
We have foxes , badgers and owls round here Eddie ( s20 area ) and I even had a badger walk up the drive and into the garage door with a bump one night 😏
I think it might be calling for a mate.
I might just move back to Sheffield ☺

I’ve heard the fox wail where I am in ha7, first time I get we heard it my wife was convinced that it was injured and made me get up and check the side of the house.
When I was in India back in August we had dogs wailing for what felt like hours in the middle of the night. Neighbouring packs having a wail out resulting in much lost sleep.
They will also dig up your lawn too !!!
We had free range (!) pigs escape about three years ago and they did dig up everyone's lawns , they got rounded up then escaped again and dug more lawns up ! They were rounded up and sent to the sausage factory
Yes, we have two or three foxes in my street (S10). One night last June woke up at about 3 in the morning, and stood at the window enjoying the breeze. Saw a fox with two little cubs cross my garden, very circumspect and choosing a path between the bushes. Very quiet thug, mostly cats around here

There was a badger road kill last week on the Normanton springs bye pass , always plenty of foxes about and quite brace coming out in the daylight
I see and hear them quite often, driving our neighbour's dog nuts..

Looks like that fox had a rat in its mouth when it returned from behind the car...
I suppose that hunters are not supposed to run around urban streets shooting left and right so it may be safer for foxes in the city than in the countryside. ;-)
What is that godawful machine noise in the background?
